Expert Reply:
For your 2014 Ford Fiesta, you can use the etrailer Classic Base Plate Kit # e98968 which fits all models of the 2014 Fiesta. This base plate kit will work with a variety of tow bars, there is an adapter depending on which tow bar you use.
In order to flat tow your 2014 Ford Fiesta you will need a tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, and a supplemental braking system along with the base plate kit. I have included an option for each of these below.
Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR (this tow bar also includes the safety cables). There is no adapter needed for the base plate kit if you use this tow bar.
Tow Bar Wiring: Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-152-1676-7
Supplemental Braking System: Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251
You will also want to consult the owners manual for your 2014 Ford Fiesta to ensure that you are doing everything that is recommended/required to flat tow your Fiesta.
